pwEnetStatsIllegalLength
Module: PW-ENET-STD-MIB
OID (symbolic): PW-ENET-STD-MIB::pwEnetStatsIllegalLength
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.180.1.2.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: ZeroBasedCounter32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of packets that were received with an illegal Ethernet packet length on this PW. An illegal length is defined as being greater than the value in the advertised MTU supported, or shorter than the allowed Ethernet packet size.
What is pwEnetStatsIllegalLength?
This counter tracks packets received on this pseudowire whose Ethernet frame length was illegal, meaning greater than the advertised MTU or shorter than the minimum allowed Ethernet frame size. An admin monitors this to detect malformed or oversized frames arriving from the PSN side of the pseudowire. For example, a steadily increasing pwEnetStatsIllegalLength count could indicate an MTU mismatch between PE routers terminating this PW.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.180.1.2.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PW-ENET-STD-MIB::pwEnetStatsIllegalLength
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.180.1.2.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PW-ENET-STD-MIB::pwEnetStatsIllegalLength.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> pwEnetStatsIllegalLength.1
